Elliott hi
My mistake it was not in Canada but England.
I have contacted George Chambers and he has given me the report of
the crash which I have put in the files section, it was AD667 that
crashed on 25/9/42. George has also put a message on this Yahoo but
it has 'No subject' as a heading. He says he will answer any queries
on it or Whitley that he has any experience of.
